There is a great deal of interest in locating green space/park space/community space at this site, and we are going to be working with the CRA to undertake a study in that direction that looks at creative, collaborative possibilities.

Please let me know if you'd like to attend.

Thanks! Heather

On Saturday, October 3, Neighborhood Council stakeholders from around the city will gather at Los Angeles City College in East Hollywood and they will grapple with the issues, they will tackle the issues and they will take action, formulating game plans for addressing the issues on a city-wide level.

This innovative app...roach to the "less talk and more walk" action plan features three sessions, each with two separate topics. The issues will be presented with pro and con presenters and the public is invited to engage, to discuss and to take action. At the end of the day, the public will developed game plans for "next steps" and everybody will have had the opportunity to participate and contribute to the endeavor.
